A good book addressing a wide array of thank you situations. March 18, 2003
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
I thought that this book might be useful in helping me write my thank you notes for my wedding. While the book did contain some information relevant to this area, it actually covers much more than just saying thank you for gifts. In addition to addressing how to say thank you for various occasions, the author offers suggestions for all-purpose thank-yous such as thanking someone for being your friend, thanking hosts for dinner, business thank yous, etc. She provides examples of different types and styles of wording to use--eg, comparing the person to jewels--as well as gives ideas for more creative expressions of thanks, such as using food items. Finally, she discusses how to thank specific people, including family, romantic partners, and teachers, and there is even a section on "kid-sized thanks." If you are looking for an all-purpose book to help you show appreciation to the important people in your life, this book is excellent, but it fares less well in providing specific advice for writing gift thank you notes.
 The perfect words for everyday living! March 27, 2001
17 out of 18 found this review helpful
I have found this book to be so helpful in both my personal and professional life. I was always taught as a little girl that writing thank you notes was one of life's basic requirements. Not only should this effort be expected, but so appreciated. And it always makes me feel good that I took the time to think of someone else. And the excitement of this book is that Ms. Spizman gives some exceptional and creative ways to say what you wanted to say. This book was recently a life saver when I had to write special notes after the loss of my mom. The book seem to take the words right out of my mouth. I have given this book as a gift numerous times and it is so appreciated by the recipient. It is definitely the gift that keeps giving.

After reading this book I was inspired to write more interesting and heartfelt notes. Although I do not copy the letters in the book, reading the sample letters seemed to help the words flow from my own pen.
Good examples, both splashy and down-to-earth January 16, 1998

If you're looking for a thank you that tops everyone else's, you'll find it here! And if you are more restrained, try the Kid's thank you note examples. They are perfectly good examples for adult birthday and Christmas thank you's. If you aren't Southern, this book may seem a little gushy. But it overflows with options for that special thank you for that special client or friend. At the price, definitely worth having.
